So you're having trouble with your golf swing and want to call in a pro. You could head over to a local golf course and literally call in the pro, for a hefty price. You could also order in an affordable video or DVD, shut the blinds and work on your swing in private.
For most people, the in-home training beats hiring a pricey golf pro hands down. Why? There are many reasons.
First, and maybe we've established this already, but there's no expensive golf pro working on that swing for you. You might get his lesson in one session or you might have to pay that hefty fee more than once. Depending on the pro and the golf course, you could pay up to $100 for this service. That really eats into green fees.
Second, and depending on your personality, this one can be importantprivacy. You can close the blinds, move the furniture and really practice the moves as you see them performed for you on your TV. Even better, you can slow down or stop the tape or DVD. This gives you a chance also to really work on the things that are troubling you and speed past those that aren't.
Third, repetitiveness. If you are having trouble with the same thing over and over again, a pro might get a little annoyed having to work with you on it over and over. But with a video or DVD, you can watch the same swing as many times as your patience will allow, but this redundancy is a little like teaching a child multiplicationdrum it into their heads over and over until they 'get' it. If you're really having trouble with your golf swing this same principle can apply.
Fourth, you can share your videos. Unlike a pro, who likely wouldn't appreciate you showing up with a few friends, you can share your golf video with others and really get more bang for your buck.
